John Nelson opened from under the gun to 5,000 and another player re-raised to 116,000. Nelson shoved and his opponent tanked. We believe Nelson called the clock and his opponent called holding {A-Hearts} {K-Spades} . Nelson held pocket tens and the jackpot when the board ran {10-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {6-Spades} .

Three Way All In

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

We missed the series of re-raises but our attention was caught when a dealer announced a three way all in.

Kelly Cheatham: {Q-Hearts} {6-Hearts}
Daniel Sampson: {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Unknown Player: {10-Spades} {10-Hearts}

The board ran {6-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} and Cheatham's short stack doubled, the unknown player was eliminated and Sampson came out on top.
